The thesis, Öppet Lager, (Open Storage) attaches a public structure to Moderna Museet’s off-site storage to bring together the showing and storing of art. As it is inevitable that large institutions cannot show their full collections, many of their works of art will be stored away from the public. Moderna Museet currently has 283 artworks on display at Skeppsholmen which is around 0.25 percent out of their collection of 140 000 pieces. As collections continue to grow the percentage of what is shown decreases, and the storage spaces fill up. To open the storages of art Öppet Lager addresses the conflict between showing and storing art and how objects could be displayed without compromising the administrative functions of transportation, conservation, and research. By proposing an alternative way to store art, the project aims to create greater access to works of art that would otherwise be sleeping deep in storages.
